Hillary lost because she and her campaign decided they had a certain cross section of voters and certain states 'locked up'. They did this despite the advice of Bill Clinton, who despite his many flaws, is a damn good politician who knows how to run a winning campaign.

(Respectfully snipped) I agree with this part. I think there's many reasons she lost, and I don't think this is the only one. IMO, she didn't "advertise" enough. I feel she assumed she would have states like Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, and definitely Pennsylvania. I really believe she didn't appeal enough to Midwestern folks.

Not sure about anyone else, but no, I don't agree. The election was in November and Trump took control of the White House in January. Bringing up Hillary in a thread about Trump is just an attempt to deflect.

I get the sense that there are some people who fear that if Trump gets turfed out of office, then Hillary will take his place.

Mr Pence, according to Federal Election Commission filings, has started a committee to collect political donations

A source within the vice-president's office told NBC that the "Great American Committee", as it's named, will allow Mr Pence to cover travel expenses and support Republican candidates in upcoming elections.

It's a move, however, that none of the vice-president's predecessors ever made - and has been a traditional opening step for past presidential candidates.
